I feel like there’s an active campaign to demonize finasteride. It’s been used for decades and has minimal side effects. I’ve taken it for years with no side effects. I’m sure some people do but rare

These side effects are very very well known. Even I knew them before researching about it.

It’s on the consumer if they didn’t even look of what fin does. We’ve known for years for some people it has horrible side effects. Minoxidil completely safe tho

Khaleesi, the breaker of back :
I don’t like to side with a corporation so I won’t but as a grown man I can not imagine not looking up the side effects for this stuff

Always keep your eye out for propaganda guys. finasteride is used most commonly by ftm trans people and listing known side effects to fear monger is… odd.

Fin is dangerus, I had a huge pain on my chest from taking only one pill. Minoxidil pills makes you depressed.

The drugs are NOTORIOUS for having these possible side effects. This is poor research by these men, it’s literally a hormone altering drug. Fear mongering

Anyone that does not research side effects of the drugs they take is an IDIOT

if you don't consult your pcp and do some research on side effects before hand that's your fault
